Chapter 43: Flower Creek

In such a barren mountain range, under the venom of snakes, if there is no miracle, this woodcutter will naturally not escape death.

But there is a certain number in the dark, maybe his life should not be extinguished, and he happened to meet Qi Daoyuan, this kind of toxin that has no ability to return to heaven in the eyes of ordinary people, in front of the innate wood spirit qi, it is like a chicken and a dog.

Qi Daoyuan saved the woodcutter's life without much effort.

The woodcutter was naturally grateful to Dade, it turned out that his name was Hong Si, a member of the Li tribe, and he usually made a living by chopping wood. Because he often goes in and out of the mountains and forests, he also knows a lot about the herbs in the mountains, and this time he was entrusted by the Chinese medicine practitioner of the clan to trek through mountains and rivers to find ambergris here.

Unexpectedly, this grass does not seem to be ordinary, but it is guarded by a poisonous snake, he was bitten without noticing, although he struggled to beat the snake to death, but the toxin entered the body, he gradually lost his strength, and he could not return to the tribe to heal.

Hong Si thought that this life was about to end, but when he was lying on his back and was about to close his eyes, he saw Qi Daoyuan galloping through the air, so he exerted all his strength and shouted, but he didn't expect to save his life like this.

Finally met a living person, Qi Daoyuan suddenly became interested, and wanted to ask the other party about the many details of the secret realm of Southern Xinjiang.

"Hong Si, have you lived in the Li tribe for generations?"

Hong Si nodded and said, "Yes, benefactor." ”

Qi Daoyuan asked happily: "Then you tell me about the information related to Southern Xinjiang." ”

Hong Si asked in surprise: "Listen to the benefactor, are you not from the five tribes in Southern Xinjiang?"

Qi Daoyuan said: "Well, I'm from the outside world, so I guess I entered this place by mistake, so I want to know more about this place." ”

Hong Si nodded, thought for a while and said: "There are five major tribes in Southern Xinjiang, in addition to the Li tribe, there are also the Zhu tribe, the Roar tribe, the Chen tribe and the Fu tribe, which are distributed in different directions. ”

Qi Daoyuan nodded after hearing this, waiting for Hong Si to continue speaking, but the other party looked at him blankly, and there was no follow-up after half a day.

"I didn't ...... Gone?"

Seeing Qi Daoyuan's incredulous face, Hong Si blushed and said, "Benefactor, I'm ...... That's all I know. ”

Qi Daoyuan was a little helpless when he heard this, these general information obviously could not meet his requirements, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. Hong Si should be just an ordinary person in the Li nationality, although he has lived here for generations, he should have never left the Li nationality, and it is reasonable that he has limited knowledge of southern Xinjiang.

Hong Si continued: "If the benefactor wants to know the details of Southern Xinjiang, he can follow me back to the clan to ask to see the patriarch. Our patriarch treats people very well, and you are my savior, and I am sure she will be very happy to see you. ”

The patriarchs of the various ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang have a high status in the clan, and in addition to the rights that have been passed down from generation to generation, there is also a huge and accurate historical knowledge, which is generally held by the wise people of the clan.

Qi Daoyuan hesitated for a moment, and then asked Hong Si about the combat strength of the Li clan, and after confirming that he could basically walk sideways with his own strength, he made a decision in his heart.

"That's fine, why don't I go back to the Li tribe with you. ”

Hong Si is a kind man with no scheming, for Qi Daoyuan's life-saving grace, he originally thought that there was no way to repay, but now seeing that Qi Daoyuan promised to return to the Li clan with him, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and secretly said that after going back, he must say more good things to the patriarch, let her answer questions for her benefactor, and at the same time inform her mother-in-law at home to entertain her benefactor.

Subsequently, Hong Si, a lucky man, experienced the only sword flight in his life, watching the familiar mountains, forests and fields galloping under his feet, he was a little panicked and scared at the same time, but also sighed in his heart, he was afraid that he had met a living immortal today!

Qi Daoyuan naturally didn't know about Hong Si's messy thoughts, and what he was most concerned about now was whether the knowledge reserve of the Li clan patriarch could provide a strong reference for the next training plan of their five-person group.

Edgeworth flew extremely fast, and the distance that took Hong Si or three hours on foot, and it took them half an hour to get back. Watching the sword light carrying the two of them in front of the patriarch's hall, many people of the Li clan knelt directly on the ground and shouted long live the immortals.

Qi Daoyuan didn't care about the blind worship of these foolish people, but under the leadership of Hong Si, he walked quickly into the patriarch's hall.

The Li tribe dwellings are built on the mountain, countless wooden houses with southern Xinjiang style surround the mountain, row upon row, and there is only one building on the highest floor, which is the patriarch's hall.

There are no complicated and prosperous furnishings in the hall, only a few tables and chairs, which makes this place a little empty. The walls on the left and right are carved with quaint murals, outlining the magnificent history with simple lines.

Taking advantage of Hong Si's time to communicate with the patriarch, Qi Daoyuan looked at the mural in a leisurely manner, but he knew a lot of useful things.

These murals tell the story of the establishment of the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang.

The first mural depicts a primitive and desolate scene, in which the human beings in southern Xinjiang have to fight against fierce beasts, and from time to time they have to fight natural disasters such as natural disasters, such as natural fires, droughts, rains and waterlogs, and live an extremely difficult life.

The second mural depicts the sudden birth of five primordial leaders from among the Terrans, who seem to have extraordinary abilities and are able to derive great power from the beliefs of their people.

The third mural depicts the story of five leaders leading humans to fight against nature and beasts, and gradually establish the prototype of the five tribes.

The fourth mural depicts the story of five powerful demonic beasts invading the five clans, and each of them being subdued by the leader and becoming the guardian beast of the clan.

The fifth mural depicts the gradual fall of the five leaders and the establishment of the patriarchal lineage system.

The content of the sixth mural is a little incomplete, it looks like it has been erased by half of life, Qi Daoyuan looked at it for a while, and he didn't understand what it meant specifically, he could only see that it seemed to be related to the holy beasts of various races.

Li people, Li civet?

The sacred beast of the Li tribe in this painting seems to be a fox, is it related to the red-haired civet cat that was killed by their joint efforts?

But it doesn't look like it, and I don't know if it's because the people who painted the murals are limited, or if it's really not the same one.

Later, do you want to ask the patriarch of the Li clan on the side, in case you really miss and kill the holy beast in the human family, it is better to slip away early!

When he was thinking like this, Hong Si had already walked in from the apse with the patriarch of the Li clan.

"Benefactor, the patriarch has promised me, if you have any questions, just ask her directly, I'll go home and prepare a meal first, and when you're done, you must go to my house to have a good meal!"

Qi Daoyuan wanted to refuse, but seeing Hong Si's resolute attitude, he could only agree with his enthusiasm, and then watched this upright man leave.

Then he took a closer look at the patriarch of the Li tribe, and saw that the other party was wearing a headband, with many silver ornaments inserted on it, a red cloth coat on the top, and a pleated skirt on the bottom, which was dressed as a woman.

Qi Daoyuan was a little surprised, but he reacted and said seriously: "In Xia Qi Daoyuan, I have seen the patriarch of the Li clan. ”

The other party also bowed down and saluted, and said: "Sir, you don't have to see outside, you are the life-saving benefactor of my clan, and you have the posture of an immortal, it is really an honor for my Li clan to come here, please call me Huaxi directly." ”

Like a beautiful flower, the sound is as crisp as a stream.

The name of Huaxi is quite compatible with the patriarch of the Li tribe.
